Chapter 27: The Flying Dawn Sword Secret Manual
Government officials blocked the door and rushed into the house to search.
Cui Heng had just walked out of the guest room.
He was not surprised to see government officials searching.
Last night, after the wedding party ended, Cui Heng went to find Old Master Li to find out more about this world.
The name of this country is the Great Jin, and it has been around for over 200 years.
It was the eleventh year of Emperor Shaokang.
There are governors who govern a territory and there are regency governors who rebel. The world is plagued with military disasters and people are in trouble.
The disciples from the various martial arts sects had come out of seclusion, either to punish evil or to help one side.
Wang Tong, prefect of Yanshan County, who was in Fengzhou with Lu County, rebelled five years ago.
This Wang Tong is good at seducing the hearts of the masses. Along the way, he gained the support of a large martial arts sect, the Lotus Flower Monastery and the Great Prosperity Monastery. The expansion speed is very fast.
Now, he already had 400,000 soldiers.
According to the information Old Master Li had obtained from past merchants, Wang Tong would soon march towards Lu County.
And the riverfront city of Juhe County was clearly the first place to be attacked.
Only then could he control the water route and transport the troops and rations. He could then attack the next county town until he completely occupied the entire Fengzhou.
This information allowed Cui Heng to roughly understand the situation of this world.
It was clearly an ancient Chinese world with Wuxia elements. It was at the end of the dynasty, an era in which heroes fought for supremacy.
He simply did not know if it was the Heavenly Sword and Dragon Killing Song level or the Sui and Tai Romance levels.
After all, it made no difference to Cui Heng.
From what he knew, there might not be a power in this world that could threaten him.
As long as he wanted to, he could easily flatten the entire Great Jin.
However, Cui Heng had no intention of killing everyone and suppressing the world.
It won't be useful to him.
This would add an obstacle to his understanding of the seven emotions and six desires of the human world.
However, he still had to take care of the Li family's situation this time around.
After all, he had just asked Old Master Li a lot of questions.
Furthermore, it was clear that the Li family had been plotted from the very beginning.
When Cui Heng woke up last night, he realized that someone had deliberately left the body of the Three Monkeys outside the Li family home.
Government officials have begun gathering at dawn.
Everything has been prepared.
The reason why he did not stop them was because he wanted to treat the root of the problem.
It doesn't just treat the symptoms.
How to manage it.
It's actually very simple.
…
The Li family residence.
Dozens of government officials entered one after another. Then, they spread out and raided one house after another at a very fast pace, rummaging through drawers and rooms.
“Master, sir, what are you doing?”
The patriarch of the Li family ran over, trembling. He found the chief bailiff and pleaded, “We obviously didn't kill Monkey Three!”
Local government officials are greedy for money. In most situations, the best solution is to put money in their mouth.
“How dare you!” The police leader roared and grabbed Old Master Li's hand, sneering. “Old thing, how dare you! You dare openly bribe an official? Catch her!”
“Ya!”
Some government employees immediately ran over and pulled the rope from their waists to tie Old Master Li down.
“You, you ?!”
Old Master Li's face turned pale as he looked at the leading bailiff in disbelief.
He did not expect such an outcome. Now, he finally understood that his family had been arranged!
Butwhy?
He has done good deeds all his life, and 70% of the money he earns every year is used to help poor families. He never made enemies with anyone else. Who would conspire against his family?!
“Dad!” Li Cheng also ran out. Seeing that his father had been arrested, he quickly went to plead for leniency. “Pak, Sir, my father is old, it is inappropriate to tie him!”
“There is no room for mercy in the law! He openly bribed an official, so he deserves to be punished!” The chief bailiff sneered and ignored Li Cheng. His gaze continued to sweep over the other enforcers, as if he was deeply concerned about the search results.
“How can this happen? How can this happen?” Li Cheng sat on the ground disappointedly. This was supposed to be a joyous event, but why was there suddenly a family breakdown? “Who is this? Who wants to hurt my Li family?”
“Not good, not good!” At this time, a servant from the Li family ran over and said to Li Cheng, “Young Master, not good! Madam, he's running away!”
“What?!” Li Cheng felt like he had been struck by lightning. He was astonished and stammered, “Nyonya..how could it be? This is impossible!”
When Old Master Li heard the news, he instantly lost his balance. His eyes turned back and he almost fainted. Fortunately, he suddenly felt a warm sensation flowing down his body and did not faint.
“It looks like your wife is a murderer. He must have escaped guilt for his crimes!” The leading officer sneered. “Your family is most likely an accomplice! Arrest everyone here and take them back to court to see the county magistrate!”
“Wait!” At this time, Cui Heng walked over and stopped the government apparatus that would arrest people.
“You are the leading expert of the Li family banquet?” The chief bailiff saw that Cui Heng was not afraid at all, and still maintained his high and mighty attitude. “Did you just say ‘wait’ because you want to stop me investigating this case?”
“Of course not.” Cui Heng smiled and said, “I just want to tell you something.”
“Speaking!” The chief bailiff said coldly.
“Monkey Three were killed by me, it has nothing to do with anyone else.” Cui Heng was still smiling.
“What?” The head of the government enforcer was dumbfounded. Then, he grinned. “Haha good! Attractively. Since you dare to turn yourself in, I will release them. Release them!”
Only then did they release Old Master Li and Li Cheng from the ropes.
The two looked at Cui Heng with deep gratitude.
Although they did not know why Cui Heng stood up to plead guilty, this undoubtedly saved the entire life of the Li Family.
“It's time to tie me up.” Cui Heng extended his hand.
“How dare!” The chief bailiff sneered, “I want to see what kind of trick you, a first-rate expert from the martial arts world, have! Tie him up and bring him back to the county office!”
Government enforcers came and left quickly, leaving the Li family home that had been overturned.
Old Master Li and Li Cheng stared blankly at Cui Heng's retreating figure. After a long moment of silence, they kneeled on the ground and kowtowed respectfully.
“Thank you, benefactor!”
…
Xiangxi City was not far from Juhe County City, so it only took an hour to travel on the waterway.
After the government official in charge brought his men back to the county office, Cui Heng was thrown in jail and locked up with a group of death row inmates.
Then, he went to see the county magistrate of Juhe County.
However, before he went to see the county magistrate, the chief bailiff grabbed his hair and plucked it from his head, revealing his true appearance.
This was a young monk who seemed to be in his twenties. His eyes were as calm as water, and there was no trace of the rough and angry gaze from before.
He turned into a monk's robe and went to the court's backyard.
At this time, the county magistrate was fishing with his back facing the young monk. He said nonchalantly, “Did you find the ‘Guidelines of the Secret Sword of Dawn Fly’ of the Li family?”
